Description
The North Entrance Lodges to Picton Castle are two small square buildings, each measuring about 5 meters by 5 meters. They are rendered and painted white, designed to match the gate-piers. The front door and window heads facing the driveway feature neo-Norman detailing, although the window joinery has been replaced. Each lodge has a shallow parapet supported by corbels, topped with crenellations that hide a shallow-pitched pyramidal slate roof with metal hip covers. In the center of each lodge, there is a large octagonal chimney, with the chimney on the west lodge being a dummy.
